The Obama-Stimulus for Your Rosh Hashanah Party

How are you going to squeeze 17 people into your tiny apartment for Rosh Hashanah dinner tonight? Especially the leader of the free world? I mean after his warm wishes to Jews this morning, maybe you should make room for the first family, too.

Convinced now? We may have the solution to your space-crunch.

Introducing the Offi Paket Table. It is a colorful cube that unfolds to reveal a table and chairs. It's is a great space-saving solution when you need to cram extra bodies for holidays. Plus, it works double duty.

Ta-dah! In seconds you have a modern table and chairs for four people.

The tabletop and chairs are made from a laminated birch plywood. The legs are powder-coated steel. Designer Srdjan Simic of Zool Designs in San Diego created this wonderfully compact furniture. It is, however, a little tight so you might make your nudge cousins sit there and seat the first fam at the dining table.
